| I usually never write on the chalk board, but project my lecture notes from pdf documents I post for students on my web site. I gave the kids an activity one day and took a picture of my questions for my own sanity (meaning: I didn't have to write them down...how cool is the smart phone? Awesome, right?) |
We've been busy bees lately. Pun not intended, I'm afraid. I've been pretty consumed by lecture prep and have also been grading papers until my eyes cross. With three sections with approximately 25 kids each, with an assignment in each class per week, the grading is an on-going event in the house. Michael's been putting the garden and the bees to bed. Here are some pics of the recent activity, kitchen and otherwise.....

| Bun's putting out a dose of fall feeding for the top bar in the garden. The fall syrup is composed of 2 parts sugar to one part water--extra rich, to get the ladies bulked up for the leaness that is winter. |
 |
| What's this, you ask? Homemade apple butter, baby. I had apples that we brought back from central PA, and they were starting to be six kinds of sandy. So, I sauced them. |
 |
| What's the sweetner? Well, our own honey, of course! |
 |
| Some little boy didn't wear his bee suit when he went to winterize the hives on the hill, and he got stung above his eye. The poor thing swelled up so severely, he could not open the lid. Within 48, however, Michael's eye was back to normal. Scary stuff, though! |
